had a customer in last month with 398k on his 10th anniversary. it was pretty beat up though.. obviously not original, he mentioned something like 5 rebuilds using all used parts, even used apex seals... did most all the work on his own without any internet resources.
i don't think anyone is going to beat that number!
i thought my TII was pushing up there with 209k... i was wrong. (probably still one of the highest mileage TII's though)

My vert has 92,500mi. Rebuilt motor around 65k.
IM shocked given age, abused, and sheer miles that the damn thing hasnt just falled apart. That metal has to be fatigued by now.

the new to me vert just turned 163k... newer engine, newer paint, its actually in pretty nice shape.
i used to know of a t2, original owner, he had 210k on it, original engine, and the body had 1 ding, from a golf ball, except for the drivers seat it was just about the cleanest FC i've ever seen.
even my last FC, an 87 GXL, with 76k, had 2 dings, and it DID NOT MOVE for 12years.

mine has 59 000 KM.... so this is like what, 35 000 miles ???
this is my 6th FC, I'm the 3rd registered owner. bought it in 2009 from a friend of mine who had it since 1997, and he bought it from the original owner who was a lady friend of his parents....
* car had a few more different engines, right now it has a JDM bridgeported S5 engine (ported with RE Amemiya templates in Japan), and its currently getting a complete rebuilt by my friend who owns a Rotary performance shop.
